Bill Burr Says Stop Blaming Immigrants, Blame Billionaires

[Thurgood Thurston III]

Hes right. The billionares and elites want to keep people busy on the culture war so they dont head to the front lines of the class war. Saint Luigi Mangione ripped back the curtain, if only for a moment.

The Luigi situation proves that the rich really do want us to fight each other.

Because for a quick second, EVERYONE wanted to see them dead.

 

[the cac mamba]

…..

So cutting off the flow of jobs cuts the majority of the reason they are even here off the bat.

But that requires you to punish rich white people. Lol. You don’t want to upset them good upstanding white folks huh.

it's truly sad that democrats think this bullshyt still works on people

i couldn't care less if people come here illegally. they always will, and that's fine. just stop asking me to protest them getting deported. that's part of the equation, when you choose to go to another country illegally

trump is out here getting record support from hispanics, and you still feel some weird obligation to crash out over this. i won't join you

 

[Prince.Skeletor]

no, i said not all of them do. and you posted that 25% of them don't

I had a feeling you would say something like that.
But it doesn't work that way.

74.1% are employed
3.1% are unemployed (actively looking for work)
22.8% are not in the labor force (not working and not seeking work; this group may include students, retirees, or homemakers)

But it's important to remember that this 26% is composed of two distinct groups:

Those unemployed but seeking work (3.1%)
Those not in the labor force at all (22.8%)

Not in the labor force, that 22.8%, many of them are students.
And maybe the man of the house works but the wife is a homemaker.

You have to understand the difference between being unemployed (seeking work) and not being in the labor force (not working and not seeking work).
And you have to remember that the not being in a labor force could just mean you are a student.

I’m talking about getting 74% out the paint off the bat.

and you’re talking about democrats and deportations…

The deportations ain’t getting 74% outta here anytime soon. It’s too slow and the ones still here are working and making money.

You too scared of rich white folks to really get illegals out of here.. so this slow deportation scheme is what you’re willing to compromise with the white folks on.

Those 74% are support at least 18-20% of the ones who ain’t working too.

Them cacs got you right where they want you

 

[Dr. Acula]

sorry, but i've had enough of this shyt. i'm not gonna be guilted by democrats into feeling some kind of obligation to let in millions of broke homeless people through the southern border

if you feel that helps you and your community, you're welcome to advocate for it. i won't be joining you and AOC at the ICE protests

In my case I’m just stating the facts. I’m even willing to to say some democrats are paid or encouraged by lobbying to support illegal immigration. But at the end of the day, these folks wouldn’t be here if there were no financial incentives and certain folks benefit from you being more pissed at the people who get paid money instead of the ones paying them. The immigrants are not the top enemy imo. They are just being used.

We're literally saying the same thing, just worded it differently. The government is enabling Billion dollar corporations to continue to grow in power. Whether your view is that the government are "employees of Corporations" (your view) or that the Government and Corporations are in unison to destroy individual power/rights (my view) it's essentially arriving at the same point

I agree. I guess im getting at this government in its current form will never do anything to hold these people to account unless they are either replaced in a substantial amount or made to be more afraid of the general population.

You guys are wasting your time arguing with cac mamba.

- If you point out where he's wrong, he'll accuse you of believing something you don't, and call you dumb for thinking it.

- If you give him actual data and facts on a subject, he'll just make some bigoted and/or derogatory claim.

- You ask him for a source, he'll pivot to some other topic altogether, and throw in a smiley to make it seem like he was joking the whole time.

Breh does not argue in good faith. He's a POS troll whose positions are emotional appeals or half-truths.

But on the topic, things won't get better unless we have campaign finance reform ... and that won't happen unless the bottom 99% of this country shows an inkling of class solidarity.

The dumbest people populating TLR all tried to rush into this thread on the first page

Such a typical statement

Stop blaming Billionaires, blame the Government for empowering the Billionaires.

- It's the Government that allows businesses like Amazon and Walmart to pay 0 taxes
- It's the Government that allows numerous Corporate bailouts year after year
- It's the Government that allows Billion dollar companies to apply for "personhood" and for Corporations to have more civil rights than a human being
- It's the Government that allows the "Corporate veil" to take away liability from the owners from the wrong doing that they cause

We are just too p*ssy to go after the Government, and saying "F*ck Billionaires" sounds better on Twitter and Instagram

They’re one and the same. People with money essentially have the government by the balls because humans are inherently greedy, tribalistic a$$holes. No government is safe from the threat of greed and hoarding of resources.

So you have to blame the billionaires for aiding that trait with aggressive lobbying and bribes. We the people shouldn’t allow our elected officials to be this way but Americans are asleep at the wheel

I mean, just look at the country. And what they used to distract us.

I kept telling everyone I know that we didn’t need sports during Covid but some of my people argued that we needed a distraction from every day life.


Look at the money SGA LeBron Cristiano Ronaldo are making. Hundreds of millions of dollars to play a game yet teachers and service workers get paid pennies and scraps.

Why do we pay so much just to be entertained and distracted??

What does how much money athletes make have to do with anything?

 

[peppe]

the fact that they deport the cheap labour and not charge the employer for hiring cheap labour says all you need to know ...

Sports stars make alot because they help generate the revenue that goes into their paycheck.

Teachers don’t make shyt because politics and taxes are involved.

The two issues are completely unrelated. If teachers were part of a multi billion dollar enterprise, they would be making millions too.

He is a comedian

He understands the relationship between joy and pain

And we watch you grumpy ass people walk around complaining all day and complainers are drainers

Don't worry be happy

I'll go through this thread later but I'm going to assume there are people in here upset
